Bug Fixes

Fixed bug that occasionally prevented scheduled reports from being sent and showed their execution date to be in the past.

Fixed image-related bug when viewing ILT units on Firefox and Chrome.

Fixed bug that prevented a comment inside a discussion unit from being deleted when embedded in iFrame.
